BullGuard Internet Security Version 9.0 - 3 User, 1 Year License (PC CD)

I've been using Bullguard for a good few years now ater discovering that Norton was slowing my PC down big time and you try ridding your PC of it! It doesn't want to go! Then along came Bullguard. How I found out about it was that my PC got a bad Malware attack and could not get rid of it. A friend suggested Bullguard. I installed it and within no time it got rid of it! I've used it ever since. This new version is the best yet without doubt especially with the new gaming mode if you're into online gaming. It has everything such as Antivirus of course, Spam filter for email protection a totally adjustable firewall, backup facility, 24/7 online support and this all covers upto three computers from your address! The new user interface is brilliant and really easy to use. This is the cheapest I've seen it for here on Amazon. The same product will cost you £44 on the Bullguard website! So this is a bargain. Forget about all this free internet security you can pick up across the net. With the increase in shopping online and internet banking you've just got to have a proper security package. This is a one year license for upto three PC's and the user interface has a countdown timer so you know exactly how many days you have left before you have to renew your subscription. Bullguard is the business for me and many of my friends and family.

I have used a number of different Internet Security software packages including Norton and McAfee and I can safely say that this has been the most user friendly and intuitive to operate of the all. It comes complete with instructions booklet which folds out from the cover of the box, installation is straightforward and automatic from when you insert the disc, there is an activation code on a sticker in the box which you will be asked to enter when you first use the programme but on screen prompts make this an easy process.

The software operates in the background, alerting you with a pop-up screen in the corner of the screen to any programmes accessing the internet and asking confirmation with another window when the software is not immediately recognised and automatically trusted. This window contains instructions and buttons to click to allow or disallow the connections and a counter which counts down so the programme will take action if you dont provide direction.

When you click on the desk top icon it brings up a control panel with options which you can select to use including:- Scan for Viruses; Back up Your Data; Allow/Block Programmes; Contact Support; Online Drive; System Status; Check for Updates; Your Bulldog Account and Upgrade. Beneath this are links to click through from this main menu to anti-virus; firewall; spamfilter; backup; support and gaming. The systems status provides recommendations for how to optimise your systems functioning and check for updates notifies you as to when you last updated while the bulldog account indicates days of subscription remaining and scan for viruses provides details of when the last scan was conducted.

The virus scan operates much like any other and provides details of files included, threats discovered and actions recommended if any threats are discovered. I really recommend this package and think that I will resubscribe when my subscription runs out.

BullGuard came with my PC, and was due for renewal. Instead of renewing direct with BullGuard, I bought this at a fraction of the cost (after checking with BullGuard that this would be ok). It was! Bargain. Excellent product.
